Summer Pasta Salad
Zucchini, romaine and cauliflower are full of minerals and prebiotic fibers. The basil contains healthy omega 3 fats, and the bacon contains monounsaturated fat — the heart-healthy kind that also happens to be good for the gut. The avocado also provides healthy fat while creating a creamy texture for the pasta. This pasta is filling but not carb-heavy so it won’t make you sleepy or weigh you down.
